Genesis 31:17-21
1599 Geneva Bible
17 ¶ Then Jacob rose up, and set his sons and his wives upon camels.
18 And he carried away all his flocks, and all his substance which he had gotten, to wit, his riches, which he had gotten in Padan Aram, to go to Isaac his father unto the land of Canaan.
19 When Laban was gone to sheer his sheep, then Rachel stole her father’s [a]idols.
20 Thus Jacob [b]stole away the heart of Laban the Aramite: for he told him not that he fled.
21 So fled he with all that he had, and he rose up, and passed the [c]river, and set his face toward mount Gilead.
